For two decades, we have seen crime in our cities and towns escalate to high levels. Our businesses are unable to keep their businesses open with peace of mind, and daily our citizenry are exposed to the risk of being victims of criminal activity. The Zambian Air Force, Zambia Army, Zambian National Service, and Zambia Police will all play an integral part in keeping our country safe.

The Police Service, is the security wing that has been blatantly disrespected and abandoned by our successive governments. We acknowledge that at the very basic level, the police service is tasked with everyday direct interaction with our citizenry. Unfortunately, some of the Police Service's frustrations are seen in the manner with which they deal with the communities they are tasked to protect. There is opportunity to improve relations between the police, and the society they aim to protect. Current conditions do not provide them [Police Service] either the morale or ability to properly execute their duties. Further, their current numbers are simply not sufficient to enforce the law. It is therefore an imperative that our men and women in uniform are provided with adequate training, and deserving compensation packages as the nature of their job requires them to put their lives on the line everyday. With this in mind, the CDP as a first step will strive to improve the current working conditions of our police service, and in turn hopefully attract more people to this profession to effectively combat crime. We will commit to attend to the grievances of the Police Service, with the seriousness it deserves.
